You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hope that she will be feeling at least some better this morning, bless her heart. Come onnnnn morphine....do your job.
Hugs to you Jenn, I know it's hard being here instead of there but prayer and your support by phone is a good thing in place of it.

Hey Jenn, got any updates on your sister? Hope all is better.

Sorry I forgot to update. She got to go home yesterday. She has something going on with her ear now but she is doing a little better.

Good to hear!

That's good to hear! How long will she be eating through a straw?

Thanks for letting us know. Hope the ear thing is just some swelling and that will go away soon.

She will be wired for at least two weeks. Then she will still have to eat soft foods for another month. So I guess she will have to eat through a straw for the next month and a half.

Glad she is at home. I wish the best for her and she and the rest of the family are in my prayers....

Jenn, when my youngest brother was about her age, he was motocrossing and wrecked. The bike landed on his jaw/cheek. It broke his jaw and knocked out some teeth. His jaw was wired shut for a few weeks too, and being a big boy he was hungry! Mom would cut weiners in very small pieces and he would push them in the opening where his teeth were knocked out. Even back then as young as I was, I thought they were both nuts because what would they do if he choked?

Hope her ears are better this morning.

Glad to hear she is home, maybe that will help her some, to sleep in her own bed. God Bless!!

Well she went to the doctors this morning for the ear pain and they think that the tube her ear drains from is clogged from the surgery but there is nothing they can do about it. She is starting to bruise a bit but the doctor said that she looks great! Thank You all for your prayers!
